Without fosters, Rhode Home couldn’t function. Help us find homes for our rescues!
We adopted our wonderful puppy Molly last week from this organization. I can't say enough good things about them! We had been trying to adopt for awhile but we couldn't find the right dog in local shelters and many of the rescue organizations either felt like puppy mills in disguise or were horribly disorganized or rude. Not these guys! They are thorough and the wonderful volunteers do everything they can to make sure the dogs go to good homes but unlike other rescues we communicated with did not pressure us into adopting right away or adopting a particular dog and we didnt feel judged at all. I love how once you are approved, you are able to look for the right dog for 6 months instead of committing to a dog you've never met and being told you can only meet them if you bring them home that day. They didn't pressure us at all and to be honest that made all the difference. We fell in love with Molly and her foster was wonderful. The woman who conducted our interview and home inspection was really great too and we owe it to her we lucked out with Molly. They were honest with us and told us up front that she knew zero commands, was not housebroken, hated her crate, and had never been on a leash before. We were glad they allowed us to make an informed decision and she has already learned sit and stay and had no accidents yesterday! She is also doing so much better in her crate and on a leash. Thanks so much for giving us the opportunity to add this wonderful dog to our family and to anyone who is looking for a dog or puppy I can't recommend this organization enough!
We went to the adoption event and filled out the application on the way there. We were approved for the dog we wanted, signed some paperwork and took him home that day! We have two young children and were trying to find a shelter that would adopt a small dog to us, and weren’t having much luck even though our kids are very dog savvy. RHR met our kids, let us hold the dog, did not pressure us one way or the other, and despite there being 20 or so dogs there and a bunch of families, they kept it organized, fluid and quick. We are thrilled with our new family member. You guys, these people VOLUNTEER to do this... to meet trucks of dogs at all hours of the night to take them home to foster. Most of the time multiple dogs to one foster, dogs that haven’t had it very easy and are scared and dirty and who most likely wouldn’t have lived through the shelter they were pulled from. This is grueling, heart wrenching, valuable work. Please adopt. Validate this work and give these poor things a warm bed and a full bowl of food.
I just want to say that we are so happy with our decision to rescue a puppy from Rhode Home Rescue.
We adopted Axl a week ago and he has brought so much joy to our home. He is an amazing puppy. We couldn’t be happier.
The application process was so easy and the volunteers are amazing.
Thank you,
Jamie, Melina & Axl
A Wonderful rescue organization Incase your wondering where to adopt from. I have first hand experience with RHR. Two yrs ago we adopted Petey, a Lil guy who looks like a mix of Chihuahua and dachshund. He was 3 at the time, found on the streets of Arkansas and his front right leg clearly had been broken in the past and never set medically to heal right. He still uses it but holds it up when he runs causing his Lil ears to flop(so cute) as he hops along. We were worried the leg would become increasing painful and need Orthopedic surgery. RHR was prepared to cover the cost of whatever treatment was recommended by the Vets! I was shocked and impressed with the professionalism. We believe , from what we have seen that he experienced a home at some point in the past with domestic abuse 🙁 but after 2 yrs Petey appears happy and secure with me. He still does not trust his human daddy completely and seems to think that violence could come from him at any time (even though it never has) unless he is sitting or laying down at which time Petey will slowly creep to him and get pets and snuggles, the minute his dad goes to get up though Petey turns into a rocket and runs for his life! And it’s been 2 years. ADOPTION: Some may think the adoption fee is too much however if you think about what it takes to keep RHR going , transport of dogs from around the country, Freq adoption events, Vet bills, employee wages and the ability to take responsibility for any special vet needs or surgeries that the pups may need to ensure it doesn’t fall on the new owners. Wow. This is the longest review ever but I am so grateful for RHR and all organizations like them for helping all of the dogs in need, having a fur baby is amazing they give us unconditional love only asking for the same, and the therapy/stress release gained from just sitting with your furbabies and petting them is priceless.
PLEASE ADOPT ( as long as your prepared for the responsibility) and treat them like your furry babies. ??#lovedogs
RHR has been incredible to work with! This was our first foray into adopting and rescuing a new pet and it was absolutely awesome! From the start, my inquiry email, all the way through picking up our newest fella, they were just terrific to work with and communicate with! I would recommend them highly and frequently! (in fact, I have! two of our friends are in the process of adopting now too!) Saving this puppy's life has been a gift beyond measure and partnering with RHR to get that done was the best decision we made! Thank you, RHR ... thank you! <3
We Love Rhode Home Rescue. We had looked at other "rescues" and felt like no one was interesting in helping our family, that wanted to help a dog find it's forever home. Two weeks ago, Daisy, AKA, Miss Beans, found her way home to us! Our experience with Rhode Home Rescue has been amazing! Dina and Stacey are pretty amazing people with an amazing love for all dogs. Thank you for all that you do. Thank You, for our sweet Daisy! xoxo
